[00:19.56]The screen door slams
[00:22.06]Mary's dress waves
[00:26.12]Like a vision she dances across the porch
[00:29.50]As the radio plays
[00:32.99]Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
[00:36.31]Hey that's me and I want you only
[00:39.87]Don't turn me home again
[00:41.69]I just can't face myself alone again
[00:46.93]Don't run back inside
[00:48.81]darling you know just what I'm here for
[00:53.75]So you're scared and you're thinking
[00:55.75]That maybe we ain't that young anymore
[01:00.31]Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
[01:04.00]You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright
[01:08.99]Oh and that's alright with me
[01:14.75]You can hide `neath your covers
[01:16.24]And study your pain
[01:18.30]Make crosses from your lovers
[01:19.93]Throw roses in the rain
[01:22.68]Waste your summer praying in vain
[01:24.87]For a savior to rise from these streets
[01:28.31]Well now I'm no hero
[01:30.30]That's understood
[01:30.81]
[01:31.78]All the redemption I can offer, girl
[01:34.46]Is beneath this dirty hood
[01:36.28]With a chance to make it good somehow
[01:38.96]Hey what else can we do now
[01:41.77]Except roll down the window
[01:44.46]And let the wind blow back your hair
[01:49.03]Well the night's busting open
[01:50.89]These two lanes will take us anywhere
[01:55.83]We got one last chance to make it real
[01:59.34]To trade in these wings on some wheels
[02:03.47]Climb in back
[02:05.22]Heaven's waiting on down the tracks
[02:10.09]Oh oh come take my hand
[02:13.03]Riding out tonight to case the promised land
[02:16.84]Oh oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road
[02:21.47]oh Thunder Road
[02:23.77]Lying out there like a killer in the sun
[02:26.40]Hey I know it's late we can make it if we run
[02:30.46]Oh Thunder Road, sit tight take hold
[02:36.33]Thunder Road
[02:39.46]Well I got this guitar
[02:41.59]And I learned how to make it talk
[02:46.34]And my car's out back
[02:48.22]If you're ready to take that long walk
[02:53.21]>From your front porch to my front seat
[02:56.46]The door's open but the ride it ain't free
[02:59.89]And I know you're lonely
[03:01.46]For words that I ain't spoken
[03:03.46]But tonight we'll be free
[03:04.96]All the promises'll be broken
[03:06.71]There were ghosts in the eyes
[03:08.40]Of all the boys you sent away
[03:12.58]They haunt this dusty beach road
[03:14.96]In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets
[03:19.90]They scream your name at night in the street
[03:22.89]Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
[03:26.65]And in the lonely cool before dawn
[03:29.90]You hear their engines roaring on
[03:33.46]But when you get to the porch they're gone
[03:36.71]On the wind, so Mary climb in
[03:43.21]It's a town full of losers
[03:45.46]And I'm pulling out of here to win
